The weather outside was not frightful, in fact it was beautiful, warm and sunny for a drive to Sheridan, Wyoming to spend Christmas with our long-time dear friends the Hartman’s. Their home is the essence of an picturesque holiday destination, unique decorations in every nook, trees festooned with charming ornaments, handcrafted nativity scenes and colorful lights that highlight the architectural lines of this incredible home.

Joseph has built an amazing greenhouse and planted fruit trees and vegetables — a stunning addition to their idyllic property where they enjoy the views of the Powderhorn golf course and the Big Horn mountains. The main character of this cozy family scene is Comet, the animated, adorable shih tzu, the object of their affection and the subject of the daily schedule of activity.

We are blessed with this friendship and our chance to enjoy this memorable Wyoming Christmas celebration. Loving our friends and family and wishing all the very happiest of holidays.
